The Party!




Well, let me warn you that I took zero pictures because I am a bad mom. But luckily I have friends who took some. So here is what we ended up with.

It's not a party if there isn't a pinata
Pin the tail on the donkey was a big miss, that is no one hit the target
So here is my introduction to the years of cake decorating to come. I felt like I had to pull out the big guns because my family goes all out on the cake. How'd I do fam?
Dallin seems to think I did a great job.
As much as I tried to encourage her to get all messy, all she really wanted was rice! What kind of kid prefers rice to cake and frosting!?

We sure do love this girl!
It's crazy that one year ago we welcomed you into this world.
Nothing has brought me greater joy than to experience life again, for the first time, with you.

Are you sure you didn't just buy that cake from some professional bakery? It looks so perfect!!! It's a good thing that I wasn't at this birthday bash because I would have taken all of the pin the tail on the donkey competition down. I too can't believe Hanalei is one, she's gorgeous!!! By the way- did I already tell you that I love your hair? I do.
